^Well crap. I always thought Gordian Knot was a '99 release. In fact, it is in the 1999 bucket in his PA discography, even though the release dates in the details say 1998. Discogs confirms this. That changes my list as it is an all-time favorite.
Guess I need to fix it. ------------- https://www.last.fm/user/Tapfret" rel="nofollow"> https://bandcamp.com/tapfret" rel="nofollow - Bandcamp |

The Kindness of Strangers - Spock’s Beard Hydrophonia - Roine Stolt Ocean 2: The Answer - Eloy The Visitor - Arena Into the Electric Castle: A Space Opera - Ayreon Liquid Tension Experiment - Liquid Tension Experiment Symphonic Holocaust - Morte Macabre Vovin - Therion 7 Year Itch - Pip Pyle In Extremis - Thinking Plague Jon Lord's 'Pictured Within' is very good, but not prog per se. Also, I checked and Gordian Knot's debut came out in '99. |
